Consumable items
InkThe machine uses individual Black, Yellow, Cyan 
and Magenta ink cartridges that are separate from 
the print head assembly.
Service Life of Ink 
CartridgeBlack - Approximately 500 pages at 5% coverage 
Yellow, Cyan and Magenta - Approximately 400 
pages at 5% coverage
 The above figures assume continuous printing at 
a resolution of 600 x 600 dpi in normal mode after 
installing new ink cartridge.
 The number of pages a cartridge will print may 
change depending on how often you use the 
machine and how many pages you print with 
each use.
 The machine will automatically and periodically 
clean the print head assembly, a process that 
uses a small amount of ink.
 The first time you install a set of ink cartridges the 
machine will use a small amount of ink to fill and 
prime the ink delivery tubes. This process will 
only happen once.
 When the machine identifies a cartridge as empty 
there may be a small amount of ink left in it. This 
is necessary to prevent air from drying out and 
damaging the print head assembly.
